Our Recent Results in Tort
Litigation
The firm's personal injury tort
practice includes nearly every area: wrongful death,
motor carrier liability, products liability, medical
malpractice, premises liability, and other personal
injury litigation. For many years, senior counsel Charles
E. McCranie and Ellis
Ray Brown practiced personal injury law with
the firm's founders, Baxter Finch and Claude Ross.
That tradition continues, and each of the firm's
other partners, Richard
W. Hendrix, Michael
A. Sullivan , Steven
R. Wisebram , and David
E. Naylor, has considerable experience in personal
injury litigation.
The firm has a long reputation for credibility with defense attorneys, in part
because five of the firm's attorneys formerly represented, or were associated
with, major insurance companies such as Traveler's, Aetna, and Liberty Mutual.
"Business torts" is a substantial
area of our tort practice. The firm's attorneys have
experience in fraud, RICO, whistleblower, Qui Tam,
federal False Claims Act, unfair business practices,
defamation, and other business tort cases. Because
white collar criminal issues arise in civil litigation
under RICO, the False Claims Act, and other fraud
provisions, the firm's extensive experience in white
collar criminal defense provides a distinct advantage
to our clients in these cases.
